Konrad Marlborough Bunch Selection Riesling 2007 |
| Produced By
Konrad & Co. Ltd. |
| Tasting Notes |
|
A brilliant, very pale straw green. The nose is very pure showing classic citrus blossom and limes with very delicate white flower aromatics. The palate is intensely flavoured, showing similar characteristics to the nose with a wonderfully mouthfilling sensation from very high fruit extract. |
| Winemakers Notes |
|
This is the first time that we have made this wine. It is a result of meticulous attention to detail in the vineyard whereby only the ripest bunches were hand selected, gently whole bunch pressed and then stop fermented where the sweetness balances the laser like acidity. With careful cellaring this wine will reward those patient enough to wait a few years. |
| Viticulture Notes |
|
The ripest bunches are selectively hand picked in small batches from the company owned Waihopai Valley site. Soil in the vineyard is of stony silt with loam topsoil and free draining. Canopy Management is the vertical shoot positioning with shoot and crop thinning. |

3 - 5 years |
| Food Match |

| TiZwine Accolades |
  |
| First you get a delicate nose with a hint of petrol. Then in the palate WOW! There is an explosion of ripe, minerally citrus flavours that fill the palate - very mouthwatering. The finish is medium with excellent persistence. And they say that it will reward a couple of years cellaring - can't wait! |
